CLG
exclusive: Citizens for Legitimate
Government (CLG) has learned that a US Judge will hear a selective
prosecution argument made by the so-called DC Madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey,
on Monday. Palfrey told CLG that Monica Goodling "likely will be
subpoenaed in this matter - along with many others at Justice - in the
near future."

Last
week, US District Judge Gladys Kessler entered an order
permitting Attorney Montgomery Blair Sibley to substitute for Preston
Burton as Jeane's counsel in the criminal matter and set a status conference
for Monday, October 22, 2007 at 10:00 a.m., in Courtroom 26A of the federal
courthouse in Washington D.C.

Subsequently,
Judge Kessler entered an order indicating that she would take up Ms. Palfrey's
selective prosecution argument. In essence, according to Mr. Sibley, Ms.
Palfrey is arguing that 'as the only one of some eighty-three (83)
escort agencies operating in the metro-DC area, the government's decision
to prosecute her was based upon political considerations arising before
the November 2006 elections.'

According
to Mr. Sibley, to support this contention, Ms. Palfrey "will be offering
a composite exhibit of statements, news articles and a memo from Monica
Goodling which collectively detail the politicization of the Department
of Justice in a manner which lends credence to Jeane's argument of
selective prosecution. At the conclusion of the argument, Jeane will be
asking the Court to issue subpoenas and conduct an evidentiary hearing
into these allegations."

Ms. Palfrey
told Citizens for Legitimate Government Sunday that Monica Goodling "likely
will be subpoenaed in this matter – along with many others at Justice
– in the near future."
